Binary Operation

The document defines binary operations on sets and describes several key properties of binary operations including: - Closure: The result of the binary operation is an element of the set. - Commutativity: The order of operands does not change the result. - Associativity: Groupings of operands do not change the result. - Identity element: There exists an element that leaves other elements unchanged under the operation. - Inverse element: Each element has an inverse such that applying the operation yields the identity. The document then states that the set of integers forms a group under addition, but not under multiplication, since multiplication lacks inverse elements. The set of even integers does form a group under addition.

Binary Operation

The binary operations ‘o’ on a non-empty set A are functions from


A × A to A. The binary operation, o: A × A → A. It is an operation of
two elements of the set whose domains and co-domain are in the
same set.
N ={1,2,3,……….} N={1,2,3…………………….}
N × N={(1,1),(1,2),(1,3)…….(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),……}
+: N × N → N

Properties of Binary Operation


Closure property: An operation ‘o’ on a non-empty set A has closure
property,
a ob∈A for all a , b ∈ A

(i) a*(b o c) =(a*b) o (a*c)
(ii) (a o b) * c = (a*c) o (b*c)
